The Talks interview

21 Aug, 2012

Van Sant gives an interview to The Talks. He discusses what he still takes photos of and why youth plays a big role in his work.

Somehow it was always the young characters that I related to the most. I remember how even when I first started I was writing stories that were set in high school. At that time, in the ’70s, there weren’t any youth-oriented films at all – except for a Disney film or something.
